When he made Sanchuudoku, Weimer simply used the same icon that was on the unimplemented (at that point) Taragarth, which was brought back into the game in Unfinished Business.

TheGodThatFailed 12-22-2004 03:10 PM

That could explain it then, was wondering if it was something like that.

To Spellhold and out

Camembert heard of another dragon somewhere but decided to take him later. Now was the time to make another trip to Bodhi's lair. Many vampires and undead creatures died but Bodhi appeared too strong for Camembert for now. So he sent her a painful reminder that this batlle is not over yet and escaped:
http://img77.exs.cx/img77/4676/shold10fw.jpg

Aran held his word and a captain Saemon Havarian transported Camembert to the island of Brynlaw where Spellhold was. After some minor quests Camembert finally managed to get to Spellhold only to be captured by Irenicus again. Irenicus striped him of his soul and left him to rot in Spellhold, where Bodhi had other plans. But Camembert was strong and after helping Imoen get away he started to clean the Spellhold:
http://img77.exs.cx/img77/4702/shold23lh.jpg

Hmmm, another lich:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/1726/shold31se.jpg

Yes, looks like a dangerous one. Let's give him some distraction:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/9500/shold43ex.jpg

There is always a hole in his defenses:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/2210/shold53up.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Exploring further and preparing the reception for dangerous creatures:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/6817/shold60hu.jpg
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/6276/shold70xd.jpg

Some annoying Yuan-ti mages were left to fry in the cloudkill:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/7131/shold88ec.jpg

Another warm reception, there is no joking with Mind Flayers:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/2142/shold99lb.jpg

Finally after a number of tests Camembert released all the prisoners with the help of Lonk, who was persuaded ( [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] CHA of 18) to let them go. They all rallied around Irenicus who had to escape this time:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/3621/shold103fi.jpg

The assassins behind him fell quickly to one whirlwind:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/1542/shold113bn.jpg

Camembert returned to Brynlaw where Saemon helped him escape from the island. But on the way out another ship intercepted them. It was the Githyanki!
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/452/caverns15rr.jpg

And when it looked really bad something strange happened - the Sahuagin appeared, scared off the Githyanki and took Camembert down to their City of Caverns:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/7411/caverns27nn.jpg

TheGodThatFailed 12-22-2004 04:55 PM

Aah, spellhold. 2nd most tedios place in the whole game, second only to irenacus' dungeon.

The Cloak, The Priestess and the MAD King

Camembert was taken to the King who was obviously mad and struck a deal with him. (Yeah, right :D ):
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/4351/caverns36ud.jpg

There was a merchant who gave a lot of money for the "surface" weapons and items. Camembert made a good deal today [img]smile.gif[/img] :
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/8716/caverns47rb.jpg

First he had to obtain a certain drow key top unlock the doors to the Prince who was Kings enemy:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/9640/caverns56yu.jpg

After having a fun afternoon with the Imps Camembert had many difficulties persuading a Beholder to take the key. Eventually he gulped on Potion of Insight to finally trick the Beholder. And he seemed happy too:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/2685/caverns69xk.jpg

Many, many rebels are out there:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/4378/caverns77au.jpg

Camembert first softened them with cloudkills and fireballs and used divide & conquer tactic:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/6579/caverns81ov.jpg

But then a little further a deadly princess exploded with gazzilion spells. This was probably the mother of all buffs :D :
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/8251/caverns95dg.jpg

Camembert ran away and first cleared the surroundings a little bit:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/7833/caverns102rv.jpg

When he approached the priestess again she summoned some psycho avatar who started to follow Camembert:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/882/caverns117cj.jpg

Camembert wasn't taking any chances so he led the sucker to his favourite Spike traps:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/1109/caverns126bn.jpg

This avatar always knew where Camembert was so there was no trouble to lure him into a trap:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/1450/caverns139rs.jpg

A normal snare was enough at the end:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/7048/caverns147yn.jpg

Camembert snook back again and dispelled priestess' defences while she summoned for help:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/9002/caverns150xo.jpg

Camembert had to attack with all haste before her help reached him:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/6793/caverns160we.jpg
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/8185/caverns178tl.jpg

She was no match for camembert Without her mega buffs:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/1439/caverns186la.jpg
She left behind a super magical and cheesy cloak, another precious item in the inventory of the expert cheeser like Camembert. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Hey, guys, how do you like the deathblow:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/5339/caverns199ro.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] How about a double cheeseburger? Let's give these guys some taste of mislead cheese:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/3996/caverns203pv.jpg
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/9156/caverns217jp.jpg

Still so many rebels to fight before reaching the prince. Camembert now had also a crossbow with very cheesy bolts which could stun for several rounds. This was now his favourite tactic when attacking first from the shadows. He then finished the poor victim with his deadly katanas:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/247/caverns226he.jpg

Finally the prince and his offer. Yeah, OK, let's trick this mad king of yours:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/6411/caverns237yg.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] They will probably get VERY angry when they find out so let's prepare for it:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/910/caverns249zr.jpg

Yep, as expected:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/4959/caverns255qe.jpg

Poor king, he couldn't even start his first swing:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/8859/caverns264ei.jpg

And finishing off all of his followers:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/5513/caverns271dz.jpg

The prince was generous and Camembert got himself some nice trinkets and a magical rope too:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/2470/caverns280xt.jpg

He used it to get down to the scary place of Underdark:
http://img92.exs.cx/img92/5954/caverns290qv.jpg

TheGodThatFailed 12-22-2004 05:58 PM

Again, nice going. I've gone for a swashbukcler after much deciding, and skipped the first dungeon (boring) and have done all of Mae'Vars quests so far. I think he'll slaughter me now, lvl 11 :D But until i'm ALOT higher i think i'll stay well away from the stronger fights.

Leslie 12-23-2004 05:17 PM

Underdark secrets

Camembert heard of a trapped mage and used a freedom scroll to set him free:
http://img60.exs.cx/img60/4823/under12do.jpg

He agreed to find his lost book. And while searching for it he scouted a big group of drow just north:
http://img60.exs.cx/img60/551/under28kq.jpg

Divide & conquer:
http://img60.exs.cx/img60/5010/under31nj.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] The drow were guarding a prison of some sort and Camembert took some precautions:
http://img60.exs.cx/img60/2372/under49ll.jpg

Good idea!
http://img60.exs.cx/img60/3159/under51ng.jpg
http://img60.exs.cx/img60/8551/under68zo.jpg

He explored the area more to the north and found a svirfneblin village. They were having big problems with a certain creature and Camembert was happy to help. Just in case...:
http://img60.exs.cx/img60/2994/under75zk.jpg

The Balor was a tough opponent but Camembert is even tougher:
http://img60.exs.cx/img60/3773/under85ka.jpg

The villagers were thankful and helped Camembert with a light gem, which would reveal the cave of Adalon. And while returning back to the mage with his book, which was also in possesion of villagers a sudden attack from a Mind Flayer! It didn't end well for him:
http://img60.exs.cx/img60/5014/under97yv.jpg

Camembert prepared just in case Vithal would not cooperate:
http://img60.exs.cx/img60/5807/under103kz.jpg

And he was right again:
http://img60.exs.cx/img60/1201/under111lj.jpg

He found another area northwest and it seemed as it was a Kou-Toa lair since there were so many of them:
http://img60.exs.cx/img60/4148/under124sh.jpg

After many killed Kuo-toans Camembert reached their leader who had no chance against a high level F/T:
http://img60.exs.cx/img60/2779/under133sf.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Southeast of this cavern was a giant sacrifical altar and Camembert prepared for a big battle, even Wagi was summoned just in case:
http://img60.exs.cx/img60/4636/under146zx.jpg

A big group of Demon Knights appeared but were soon destroyed with traps and heavy weapons:
http://img60.exs.cx/img60/4639/under157lo.jpg

Camembert picked up a good armor, a twohanded sword and a belt which made him feel VERY strong. :D

Leslie 12-24-2004 03:44 AM

Bah-olders

Camembert gathered information about Underdark areas and heard of a Beholder lair. He equipped his magical shield and prepared for an adventure:
http://img153.exs.cx/img153/8807/beho18xk.jpg

The two beholders waiting as a welcome party were soon dismissed:
http://img153.exs.cx/img153/9758/beho20rp.jpg

Wow, another deadly welcome. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Try this HLA:
http://img153.exs.cx/img153/1556/beho37gr.jpg

And another! [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Greater Deathblow causes carnage:
http://img153.exs.cx/img153/307/beho54cf.jpg

And while destroying the poor Beholders their big mama came to investigate - The Hive Mother:
http://img150.exs.cx/img150/6044/beho63xf.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Camembert ran away and quickly set up a small ambush with two spike traps. YES!
http://img150.exs.cx/img150/5688/beho84px.jpg
(cheese - sometimes the spike trap does double damage as in this occasion. :D There were only two.)

But there were still some powerful Elder Orbs floating around:
http://img150.exs.cx/img150/2843/beho98xd.jpg

Not for long though:
http://img150.exs.cx/img150/4021/beho108ta.jpg

Hey, nice treasure ;) :

Mind Suckers

There was still one unexplored area in the Underdark, but a surprise awaited Camembert when he entered:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/3769/mind10dm.jpg

He had to fight in arena as a prisoner:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/53/mind23cl.jpg

Alrighty then!
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/9223/mind32qg.jpg

Very good, unexpected allies:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/1750/mind44eq.jpg

Bye, bye, jailor:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/4227/mind55qd.jpg

Protection from Greentstone amulet was always on:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/6352/mind60kz.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] This HLA will be used many more times:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/2278/mind79nk.jpg

There are other poor souls captured here and Camembert made sure they woke up:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/7804/mind88ee.jpg

Some doors are REALLY hard to open:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/4526/mind98sc.jpg

Preps for a tough fight:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/7689/mind108ag.jpg

Here we go again:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/4170/mind119kg.jpg

No chance for those mind suckers:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/7250/mind120tm.jpg

Lowering his saves with one Potion of Invulnerability just in case:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/3813/mind133sc.jpg

This room has some special Brine potion which protects from psionic attacks. At last:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/5691/mind145rl.jpg

During his travels around Amn (on Torgal's body) Camembert found a very special arrow and he was saving it for a very special occasion. This looked like a good opportunity to use this arrow to its full potential:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/356/mind154ug.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Combining this arrow and a certain HLA brings smile to Camembert's cheesy face:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/3920/mind160am.jpg
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/6966/mind178rg.jpg

One of his special thief skills:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/9372/mind183px.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] This looked like the end of the cave so there is probably a big fight ahead. Let's give myself some headstart, were Camembert's thoughts:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/5968/mind195im.jpg

Aaargghh, another heavy door:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/206/mind202lt.jpg

Ooohh, what a big head! Let's whack it :D :
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/2577/mind226jy.jpg

And the support group is gone too:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/7139/mind238tr.jpg

Yeah, yeah, no problem:
http://img160.exs.cx/img160/9943/mind242ry.jpg
